Why an electromegnetic wave can travel through empty space that contains no matter?
Because an electromagnetic wave is a wave that doesn't oscillate matter, rather it oscillates between electric and magnetic fields, a phenomenon that requires no matter. In fact, the only thing that matter does, with all of its tiny, little electromagnetic fields coming from the atoms inside of it, is slow the wave down.
What else can I help you with?
What waves are unique because of there ability to travel through a vacuum. a space that contains no particles of matter?
Electromagnetic waves are unique because they can travel through a vacuum, which does not contain matter particles. This is because electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can propagate through empty space.
What kind of wave can travel only through matter?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave, can only travel through matter because it requires a medium to propagate. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space.
What medium sound waves travel through?
Sound waves can travel through any matter- liquid, gas or solids. The denser the matter, the faster the sound travels. It cannot travel through vacuum- a vacuum is an absence of matter.
What is the energy that can travel through empty space or through matter?
Electromagnetic energy, such as light and radio waves, can travel through empty space or through matter. This type of energy does not require a medium to propagate and can travel vast distances through the vacuum of space.
What kinds of energy travel through matter?
Mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic energy can travel through matter. Mechanical energy involves the movement of objects or particles within a substance. Thermal energy is the movement of heat through matter. Electromagnetic energy, such as light or radio waves, can also pass through various types of material.
What is an empty space that contains no matter that light can travel through?
A vacuum.
Why cant you get energy from the sun through convection?
Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.
Can travel only through some type of matter .can travel either through matter or through empty space?
One example would be X-Rays. They are stopped by Lead, but travel through other matter and empty space.
What can travel either travel through matter or through empty spaces.?
volume
What state of matter do P and S waves travel through?
P waves can travel through all types of matter. S waves can only travel through solids.
What waves are unique because of there ability to travel through a vacuum. a space that contains no particles of matter?
Electromagnetic waves are unique because they can travel through a vacuum, which does not contain matter particles. This is because electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can propagate through empty space.
How do rays travel?
through matter
In what form does sound travel through matter?
Through waves
Explain why cant sound travel through vacuums?
there is no air in a vaccum. and sound needs air for the sound waves to travel through.
What kind of wave can travel only through matter?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave, can only travel through matter because it requires a medium to propagate. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space.
What to waves travel through?
Sound waves travel through matter. The only thing it doesn't travel through is vacuums or outer space.
What does an electromagnetic wave do?
can travel through matter
